While revealing its might, it also aimed to provide a natural purification attribute to the powerful bloodthirsty vortex, leveraging the enhancement of the Light Law. This would maximize the weakening of the protective power offered by the devouring vortex.
As expected, every detail of the battle unfolded under Xu Yang's powerful mental control. Simply on the basis of these fundamental conditions, the Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint, Xu Yang's opponent, had already suffered a crushing defeat.
From the outset, he had no chance of victory whatsoever. The massive fist, enveloped in an outer layer of golden light, unleashed earth-shattering power.
When all the light transformed into pure power, collapsing and erupting, all the devouring energy that the Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint had gathered before them vanished into nothingness. His physical body was also blasted thousands of miles away in that instant, only to be drawn back to its origin by the void vortex personally opened by Xu Yang.
At that moment, he lay weakly on the ground like a pile of mud. The moment he barely lifted his head, his extremely feeble body was evident, and his eyes appeared utterly vacant.
"Impossible! I was utterly defeated by a human!"
The black-shrouded entity trembled slightly. The Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint could not confront this, his sole defeat in hundreds of thousands of years of cultivation. Unbeknownst to him, a searing torment, akin to flowing blood, had already taken root deep within his heart.
Little did they know that after his punishment, this individual had bound his human soul to this accursed beast body, transforming into his current monstrous appearance. His bloodthirsty instinct stemmed from the overwhelming power of his original human soul, for which no demonic beast body was strong enough to contain it.
Consequently, he was forcibly bound to the physical form of this bloodthirsty beast. Only his ferocious and tyrannical nature could maximally contain the powerful outflow of his human soul's energy.
Thus, the torment the Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint had endured over the years was far greater than that borne by human-soul demonic saints of the same caliber as White Lotus and Qi Tian.
He had always strived to break through the cultivation limit of a Level 10 Demonic Saint. He believed that one more breakthrough in his cultivation would allow him to shatter the sealing energy imposed by the Supreme God and completely free himself from this monstrous beast body.
However, he was keenly aware that his cultivation path could tolerate no failure. Otherwise, his Dao heart, which pursued perfection, would suffer permanent damage, leading to a failed outcome the moment he finally attempted a breakthrough.
The reason he always harbored this thought was that when he faced judgment years ago, he still held deep attachments and obsessions in his heart. He refused to seek out his lingering affections in the human world while in such a state.
It was precisely this belief that consistently propelled him forward. Even while spending every agonizing day amidst endless slaughter, he never chose to give up.
For he always carried a beacon of light in his heart to banish darkness. But now, after this battle's defeat, that inner beacon finally shattered, and the last glimmer of hope began to fade.
Xu Yang could even sense that the individual lying at his feet no longer possessed the sharp edge of a top-tier Demonic Saint. He was more like a desperate soul, weak and powerless, with his life force on the verge of exhaustion, approaching its end.
It was during this time that Xu Yang had the opportunity to penetrate the mind of the black-shrouded special life form with his powerful mental force, stepping into his inner world. He accomplished what Little Flower had previously attempted but failed to do.
And when Xu Yang truly understood the past experiences of this human soul, he finally gained a completely new understanding of this enigmatic Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint.
At the same time, Xu Yang immediately shared this understanding with the young women who had accompanied him. The White Lotus Demonic Saint sighed softly.
"Another deeply emotional being," the White Lotus Demonic Saint mused. "It seems the Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint, in stark contrast to his fearsome reputation, was once human. He was truly a devoted and honorable man."
"To think that his happiness was torn apart by the will of the Supreme God! His obsession stemmed from this, dreaming of one day breaking free from this sealed state and returning to the Six Great Royal Clans. It turns out this individual was once a proud prodigy of the Xuanyuan Royal Clan's younger generation. Truly unimaginable!"
Little Flower and the others obtained these clues after deciphering the corresponding mental seals. However, due to insufficient soul strength, only Xiaoxiang and the aloof young woman among them were able to fully decipher Xu Yang's mental content. When the aloof young woman learned the true identity of the Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint and his past experiences as a human soul, she was utterly stunned.
"How could this be? You, no!"
The aloof young woman suddenly cried out in agony, frantically clutching her head as if her entire being had plunged into an endless abyss of the soul. No one understood why she had become so agitated.
Seeing this, Xiaoxiang immediately activated her powerful Longevity Sacred Art lineage to help the aloof young woman beside her, calming her turbulent emotions and soothing her soul.
Although it had some effect, it couldn't fully restore the girl to her original calm state. Xu Yang immediately intervened without hesitation.
He pointed a finger at the girl's forehead, and a boundless soul purification ability instantly spread within her mind. Witnessing this interaction, the Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint seemed to receive an immediate and profound sensation.
Soon, two black rays of light directly locked onto the aloof young woman's body. The technique he had previously used on other young disciples of the Xuanyuan Royal Clan was now performed on her once more.
"You are Duo'er! Is it really you? My daughter!"
The Blood-Weeping Demonic Saint suddenly burst into a state of extreme excitement and surprise, his previous decline of a dying life force completely gone. He immediately sprang to his feet and, as if mad, rushed toward Xu Yang and the aloof young woman.
The name "Duo'er" sounded particularly unfamiliar. Only then did Xu Yang realize that this most outstanding prodigy from the Xuanyuan Royal Clan's younger generation had seemingly never revealed her name, and instead, her true name was now heard from the Demonic Saint himself.
Everyone present was plunged into a strange bewilderment. No one could have imagined that this excellent, seemingly self-important young woman from the Xuanyuan Royal Clan actually shared such an intricate connection with a Demonic Saint of that generation.
"Duo'er! It's me, I'm your father! You've probably forgotten that hundreds of thousands of years ago, during the Supreme God's judgment, I was forced to seal you within ten-thousand-year-old profound ice!"
Xu Yang had used a great divine ability to directly extract all the fragmented soul memories from Duo'er's mind, only to find that the memories from hundreds of thousands of years ago were already in a shattered state.
